The second service agreement is with a global clothing manufacturer and retailer, and the third with a global manufacturer of ba?eries and smart power systems. These are the result of a focus on new clients with the poten%al to adopt the Company's technology at scale.

Kirsty Fuller, Chief Executive Officer of Big Sofa Technologies, commented:

"In the Final Results Announcement earlier this month, I outlined the three pillars to Big Sofa Technologies' strategic roadmap: Strategic integra%on with key Ipsos service lines and technologies, Visual Insight System delivery to end clients and automated data extraction for large data companies.

Visual Insight System isour dynamic, interac%ve plaBorm for knowledge sharing, data re-mining and cross-discipline collabora%on and connec%on. It is our core direct-to-client product offering. The progress we have made in the year to date - retaining exis%ng clients on long-term revenue agreements, being added to the supplier roster of new global clients, extending the company's client base to include global technology companies - marks progress against the strategic goals that we set earlier in the year."
